Maybe if the ratings are decent the show will write for TEB and not marginalize her or kill Lauren off.

I would love it, but I doubt it. I don't think they will kill her off anymore. She was emmy nominated for her last two stories, both of which pulled good ratings, but it didn't stop her from being backburned when they wrapped. I think this Sara/Lauren arc will be like the Pheila one and wrap in about 4 or 5 weeks. They need to free up Michael to defend whoever is the focus of the Adam murder trial.

It is hard to tell what the fans were responding to last week: The Adam story culmination, the start of Lauren/MamaBear, a combo or spring break for many kids.

Will anyone at GH take anything from strong ratings growth occurring when Jason has no story and no purpose?

If only.

It seems that way I know despite that I still have issues with the 'way their stories' are told I find it far more interesting when he just pops in

I find the character boring and they refuse to spice him up in a good storytelling kind of way so it is what it is. I've been watching for Nancy' storyline...I'm an Alexis fan

WOW 1.7 on Friday for AMC!!! Ouch!!

Guess many did not care to see AM make her return!! No surprise there!

I'm glad OLTL is going up, however marginally, but I'm not as happy at the ideas that those at ABC must be getting about why the ratings are going up (Gigi and Rex are awesome and yet another hostage crisis proves it; blacks and gays boo hiss).

Carl, I agree.

But anytime OLTL beats AMC I am thrilled.

The entire industry is a lesson in futility. I haven't watched OLTL in a week, i thought it had gotten horrible in the last two weeks. I haven't seen Y&R in a month. Caught one episode and that was enough.

From what I read here the only decent soaps are Days and GH. Damn, I need to DVR Passions Reincarnated (Y&R) while I am a work today. I have to see this Tracey thing!

Ugh.

I bet Frons is probably thinking all they had to do was cut the gays, blacks, and characters in the way of his couples, and the ratings would go back up.

All we need to do is convince Frons that Rex is the product of a night between Helen Willis and Mr. Bentley. Bye Bye Rex.

No one tuned in to see that awful Kendall/Greenlee showdown ABC was promoting because the writing is always slanted towards Greenmean.

or because they knew the toxin that is zendell was on the way back to there screen? lol.

LOL @ Y&R getting a +.2!

Stuck with Mary and Hogie until the end!

I have to agree with that!

I was really down on OLTL a few weeks back but starting to become a bit more optimistic. The baby story is over. Viki is coming back. The sets - especially the ones at the Palace hotel or County Club - are great. I just want this stupid high school musical nonesense to be over and then I may be able to enjoy my show. I wish the show would pair Ford with Dorian, a la Dorian and Joey or Dorian and David. I think that could be interesting.

Either way, I'm optimistic.

Actually I'd guess not many were interested in seeing it be all about Greenlee which it was.

The last few Friday's have been 1.7's, so what's the excuse for that?

And now that Kendall, the "vampire squid", comes back, it's all going to go downhill!!!

That they need to put the focus on Sonny and his children perhaps?

LOL @ Y&R getting a +.2!

Ain't that the truth!
